@sage.the.author: As an author, writing protagonists is one of our most IMPORTANT jobs. And you need to make sure your book’s main character doesn’t SUCK! Part of writing a good MC is making sure you know their place in your book. If you don’t, they won’t feel focused and relevant to the reader. Make sure you know why your main character exists!!! #writing #writertok #author #writingcommunity #authortok #writingtips #writingabook
my main character is someone who seeks redemption for causing massive atrocities for many many years, and they're In conflict with my antagonists who either think that she doesn't deserve it or should embrace her evil actions

Yogen_sama :
My main character is a boy destined to destroy the world(sounds crazy i know)—but he’s not having any of it. If fate says he has to, he’ll punch destiny in the face to prove it wrong. He wants to give life everything he’s got and be the best version of himself, even if his choices aren’t perfect. As long as they feel right to him, he’ll stand by them—no matter where they lead. To him, being true to himself means more than being perfect.

My protagonist is a hero that tries to save the world, but questions the usual norms of heroism, striving to forge his own moral code, very similar to Invincible

Mr. Medallion :
My main character is a deserter, searching for his mother and wanting to bringing justice wherever he goes. At the midpoint his goal shifts to saving the world from his home country, unwillingly becoming the vessel of the god of the land in order to do so. In the end, he exerts all of his power to kill the god controlling his country specifically, declaring that no god shall rule over humans.

My MC is a the son of a dead superhero. This loss in his life causes him to view heroics and as pointless, and using power for yourself I'd better. In world selflessness, and self sacrifice is very glorified

I don't even know who was the protagonist of my friends, so I like to assume it was my character since he was the only real hero of the story

Daniel Coniff | Writer + Psych :
Someone once pointed out that the main character of my story was actually the antagonist because his goal was to change the minds of everyone around him. I still think about that honestly.

Lennart Vierkant :
Mine exists to show his own voice to the world which he wasn’t able to his entire life. He’s not a hero nor a villain. He just exists to be free. He travels the world to be free. He ignores, he accepts, he rejects, he kills, he saves, he goes where he wants and he does what he wants, because true freedom isn’t bound by anything.

My protagonist and her purpose in the story is mainly to try and overcome the things that take hold of her life. Anxiety, depression, the inability to properly connect due to not being fully human.
